About Bryanna
BACP. 18 years of experience. Bryanna Martin Smith works with people on relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, self-esteem, anxiety, stress and other life changes. She describes clients as the experts of their own story and aims to draw on their strengths during counselling.
Bryanna uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address practical problems and emotions in everyday terms. Sessions focus on talking through current difficulties, understanding patterns that cause pain, and trying small changes that can ease stress. She also supports people dealing with intimacy issues, parenting strain, anger, career stress and depression.
The counsellor states she helps with specific issues such as abandonment, blended family problems, body image, communication difficulties, control and dependent personality concerns, and challenges after divorce or separation. She also lists work with domestic violence, infidelity, isolation and end-of-life and hospice related matters.
Her approach is straightforward. Bryanna encourages people to notice what already works for them and to test practical steps between sessions. She frames counselling as collaborative and goal-focused, with attention to coping skills and clearer communication.

How Bryanna uses evidence-based methods online
Brief descriptions here draw on what the counsellor says about using evidence-based therapeutic techniques. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful patterns in thinking and behaviour and trying small, practical changes; this can help with anxiety, low mood and stress by introducing new routines and different ways of responding. Another approach emphasises talking through relationships and communication problems to build clearer ways of expressing needs and resolving conflict, which can help with intimacy, parenting strain and family difficulties.Bryanna treats deciding which approach to use as a collaborative process. She will work with the client to agree goals, test what helps, and adjust methods based on progress and preferences rather than following a fixed plan alone.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also gives flexibility to choose quieter times, avoid camera use on some occasions, or arrange sessions that suit work and family schedules. Registered or accredited professionals often offer these practical benefits when working remotely, and Bryanna can discuss which arrangements would work best for each person.
